A great way to get warm this winter: a home workout!

  • By Fitlyzen

Unless you are one of the lucky ones with a cheap long term energy contract, by now your wallet has felt the energy prices. Nothing beats a cozy home during a cold winter day, but how cozy is it when it's getting too expensive to turn on the heater? Fortunately, there are other ways to get warm. This home workout is guaranteed to make you hot 'n steamy.

 

The workout is a circuit and consists of 3 rounds of 5 exercises. You perform all exercises for 50 seconds, with 10 seconds of rest in between each one. You don't need any gym equipment for this routine.

 

The circuit is high intensity which will result in a high heart rate and takes only 15 minutes. If you think this is easy, you can of course extend the exercise time for each set. Good luck!

 

 

  1. 50 seconds: Low to high plank switches

Start in push up position, drop to low plank on your elbows and then back up to high plank again. Alternate which hand you move first each time.

 

Rest 10 seconds

 

  1. 50 seconds: Jump Squats

Squat down deep and jump as high as you can when moving up. Try to land as gently as possible and immediately drop down to squat again.

 

Rest 10 seconds

 

  1. 50 seconds: Push-ups

Are regular push-ups too hard? Try Knee-push-ups. Are regular push-ups too easy? Raise your feet from the floor and put them on a chair or bench whilst doing push-ups.

 

Rest 10 seconds

 

  1. 50 seconds: Jump lunges

Take a big step forward with one leg and move down until your knee almost touches the floor. Now push yourself up explosively and whilst jumping switch your other leg forward. Repeat. Try to land as gently as possible.

 

Rest 10 seconds

 

  1. 50 seconds: Mountain climbers

Start in push-up position. Keep your back straight and raise one knee at a time towards your chest in this position. Now lower that leg back to starting position and raise your other knee to your chest. Try to do this controlled and as fast as possible.

 

This was one round. Take 30 seconds rest and start your second round. If 3 rounds is too easy go for 5 rounds in total!
